Comments:1- The VAM-2A is a late die state of the fairly common VAM-2 doubled ear. It shows the same doubling of the lower earlobe on the obverse. A small die break occurred on Liberty's upper lip and can be seen as a "moustache" shape. This doubled ear, die break combination is exceptionally rare and should be snatched up in any grade, even very low-end circulated specimens. Sometimes only a small part of the moustache is visible as the break has not developed fully. These are desirable but not worth as much as the full moustache break.

Sometimes an early die state of the moustache break is found. Below is an example of an EDS break. Typically, the EDS does not bring as much as a full moustache break.
